XXY (2008)





For just about everybody, adolescence means having to confront a number of choices and life decisions, but rarely any as monumental as the one facing 15 year-old Alex (Ines Efron,) who was born an intersex child (with both male and female genitalia). As Alex begins to explore her sexuality, her mother invites friends from Buenos Aires to come for a visit at their house on the gorgeous Uruguayan shore, along with their 16-year-old son Álvaro (Martin Piroyanski.) Alex is immediately attracted to the young man, which adds yet another level of complexity to her personal search for identity, and forces both families to face their worst fears.

H 15χρονη Alex ζει με τους γονείς της στην Ουρουγουάη και έχει ένα μυστικό που την διαφοροποιεί από τα άλλα παιδιά της ηλικίας της, είναι ερμαφρόδιτη. Η γνωριμία της με τον 16χρονο Alvaro καθώς και το γεγονός ότι ο πατέρας του είναι πλαστικός χειρούργος, είναι αρκετά για να ταράξουν τις ισορροπίες στη μέχρι τώρα ζωή της.

Melting Away (2012)



"Namess ba-geshem", the first feature film of Israeli cinema that examines parents attempting to deal with a transgender son. It's based on a true story. A moving film of love, tolerance, family and forgiveness, with a surprising end. The Israeli female super model Chen Yanai is playing the leading part.

When middle-aged patriarch Shlomo discovers women’s clothing in his son Assaf’s room, he decides to 'teach the boy a lesson.' When Assaf returns to his parents' home one rainy night from a party, he cannot get in. His father, with the silent consent of his mother, Gallia, has locked the door. Fast forward to the present, some four years later. The distraught Gallia has turned to an investigation agency to help her find Assaf and bring him to see Shlomo, who is now dying of cancer. One night, at a night club in Tel Aviv, Assaf is seen performing as a transgendered singer by the private investigator. Soon after, a private nurse turns up at Shlomo's room at the hospital, sent, as she claims, by the insurance agency to assist Shlomo. Over time, the mysterious Anna manages to conquer Shlomo's heart by her charming personality and her special attitude toward life.

Paragraph 175 (2000)



By the 1920's, Berlin had become known as a homosexual eden, where gay men and lesbians lived relatively open lives amidst an exciting subculture of artists and intellectuals. With the coming to power of the Nazis, all this changed. Between 1933 and 1945 100,000 men were arrested for homosexuality under Paragraph 175, the sodomy provision of the German penal code dating back to 1871. Some were imprisoned, others were sent to concentration camps. Of the latter, only about 4,000 survived. Today, fewer than ten of these men are known to be living. Five of them have now come forward to tell their stories for the first time in this powerful new film. The Nazi persecution of homosexuals may be the last untold story of the Third Reich. Paragraph 175 fills a crucial gap in the historical record, and reveals the lasting consequences of this hidden chapter of 20th century history, as told through...

Satyricon - Fellini (1969)



In first century Rome, two student friends, Encolpio and Ascilto, argue about ownership of the boy Gitone, divide their belongings and split up. The boy, allowed to choose who he goes with, chooses Ascilto. Only a sudden earthquake saves Encolpio from suicide. We follow Encolpio through a series of adventures, where he is eventually reunited with Ascilto, and which culminates in them helping a man kidnap a hermaphrodite demi-god from a temple. The god dies, and as punishment Encolpio becomes impotent. We then follow them in search of a cure. The film is loosely based on the book Satyricon by Gaius Petronius Arbiter, the "Arbiter of Elegance" in the court of Nero. The book has only survived in fragments, and the film reflects this by being very fragmentary itself, even stopping in mid-sentence.

Η περιπλάνηση δύο νεαρών ακόλαστων στη Ρώμη της εποχής του Νέρωνα. Ελεύθερη προσέγγιση του έργου του Πετρώνιου, μέσα από ένα εγχείρημα που ο Φελίνι αποκάλεσε "δοκίμιο επιστημονικής φαντασίας του παρελθόντος". Χαλαρό αφηγηματικά, αλλά με εντυπωσιακές εικόνες και εκπληκτικά σκηνικά από τον Ντανίλο Ντονάτι.

Η πρώτη τρανσέξουαλ δασκάλα στο Μπουένος Άιρες



Η πρώτη τρανσέξουαλ δασκάλα στο Μπουένος Άιρες από depy6



BUENOS AIRES - The July winter vacation was coming to a close and José’s decision was maturing: he would simply tear down what remained of the “closet” he'd slowly been coming out of. So on July 30, José arrived at the elementary school that he works at in Buenos Aires as "Melisa," and became the city's first ever transgender teacher.

Weeks earlier he had met with school administrators to inform them of his decision: “I have an obligation to be coherent with my deepest sentiments that are leading me to take this step in my life, a life that will never be lived to the fullest if I don’t show the essence of my own being. And my being is profoundly feminine.”

Why now? Melisa feels that it is time to be herself in the workplace. Also, on May 9, the Senate passed a law on gender identity that allows individuals to adapt their national ID documents and birth certificates based on a gender choice.

Melisa has been a teacher for the past 22 years, specializing in optional chess workshops. [Watch footage and interview of Melisa here] She teaches 12 different classes in different public schools around the city, with students from second to fifth grade.

Her students have always known her as José; now she is Melisa. Thin, very tall and with dazzling finger nails, she is proud of the acceptance she got from her daughters (aged 21 and 16) and the rest of her family, who confirmed their own suspicions after seeing Melisa dressed as a woman in photos that Melisa had decided to show them.

But that was only the beginning of the process. What would the parents of her students say?

Enrique Samar, principle at one of the schools Melisa teaches at, said that the majority have accepted the decision. Only one mother decided to pull her son from the chess workshop.

Haydeé Torinchik, a family psychologist, says that the school erred by leaving communication with the children essentially up to the parents. “You have to work from their heads, find out what they know and what they imagine, and answer questions in an adult way based on that," Torinchik said. "Melisa is not hurting anyone, she is saying the truth, and the truth is respect.”

Laying groundwork with long nails

According to Melisa, the change was not a radical departure, because she was already preparing the terrain: she started to wear her nails long and wear jewelry, plucked her eyebrows and started training her voice.

“Teacher, men don’t wear their nails long,” students told her during the transition. Some of the changes appear to have been completely accepted, but seeing her in heels and a skirt still provokes surprise. “You’re pretty, teacher!” and “Why did you change now and not earlier?” were some of the comments.

Sergio Provenzano, director of studies in Sex Education and Gender Studies of the University of Buenos Aires, said that children understand better than adults, because they are able to look at the changes without prejudices.

Melisa openly said that she has more than 200 skirts at home, and that you just don’t see transsexuals of her age walking around the city. In what seems to have been an intimate conversation, Soledad Acuña, the under-secretary of diversity in school told her: “You are the first out of 50,000 teachers. Somebody had to open this door, and it was up to you.”

Melisa grew up in a a very repressed environment, and never felt totally happy. “Eight years ago I accepted myself for what I am: a person with masculine genitals who feels like a woman. And at last I could sleep peacefully,” she said.

In the next couple of days she will arrange to get a new national ID card. For some people she is still José, for others she is Melisa -- ending up with an androgynous image that she doesn’t really connect with.

“She should be respected," says Provenzano, the Gender Studies department director. "According to the current law, a person has the right to choose his or her own sexuality and gender. And to the extent that something is legitimate, it is incontrovertible.”

Κατέφθασε στην τάξη ριζικά αλλαγμένη και κατάφερε να κάνει την επιθυμία της πραγματικότητα, αποκτώντας γυναικεία εμφάνιση. Πώς αντέδρασαν συνάδελφοι και μαθητές (Vid)


Μπορεί να έφυγε για τις χειμερινές διακοπές ως José, γύρισε όμως απόλυτα ανανεωμένος στο δημοτικό σχολείο που δίδασκε αυτή τη φορά ως... "Melisa".

Πήρε τη σημαντικότερη απόφαση για τον εαυτό της και ενημέρωσε για αυτό της το βήμα τους διευθυντές των σχολείων στα οποία εργάζεται λέγοντας πως : ''Έχω την υποχρέωση να είμαι συνεπής με τα βαθύτερα συναισθήματα μου που με οδηγούν να κάνω αυτό το βήμα στη ζωή μου, μια ζωή που δεν πρόκειται ποτέ να ζήσω στο έπακρο, αν δεν δείξω την ουσία της ύπαρξής μου. Και η ύπαρξή μου είναι βαθιά θηλυκή''.

Έτσι, η Melisa έγινε η πρώτη τρανσέξουαλ δασκάλα του Μπουένος Άιρες, όπως γράφουν το ''Worldcrunch'' και το ισπανικό ''Clarin''.

Αισθάνθηκε πως είχε φτάσει η ώρα να αλλάξει όταν τον περασμένο Μάιο η Γερουσία ψήφισε ένα νόμο σχετικά με την ταυτότητα του φύλου που επιτρέπει στα άτομα να προσαρμόσουν την ταυτότητά τους, έγγραφα και πιστοποιητικά γέννησης με βάση την προσωπική επιλογή του φύλου τους.

Η Melisa είναι δασκάλα τα τελευταία 22 χρόνια σε διάφορα σχολεία της περιοχής και αναλαμβάνει τάξεις από τη δευτέρα έως και την πέμπτη δημοτικού.

Κι αν αναρωτιέστε πώς την αντιμετωπίζουν οι μαθητές της να σας ενημερώσω πως την έχουν αποδεχθεί πλήρως, αν και κάποιοι μαθητές λένε ακόμα πως είναι ''πολύ όμορφη... δάσκαλος''.

Η προεργασία είχε ξεκινήσει αρκετό καιρό πριν καθώς η ίδια φορούσε κοσμήματα, μακριά νύχια και λέπταινε τη φωνή της όσο ήταν δυνατό.

Δεν αντιμετώπισε κανένα πρόβλημα από την οικογένεια και το εργασιακό της περιβάλλον και νιώθει περήφανη με την απόφασή της, η οποία μπορεί να ανοίξει το δρόμο και σε άλλες παρόμοιες υποθέσεις.
